Been a while since my last post

Quite a bit has happened over the past month.

  • Went for three bike rides all in various directions and paths, but they all were 25 t0 30 miles. I'm really excited about this considering that between 2004 and 2008 I'd been fighting a knee issue (see earlier posts). Adam down at Rassy really dialed me in well to both bikes. My goal for the next 3 months is to get in some more good rides working my way higher and higher on mileage. Who knows, I may even do the Wednesday of Ragbrai
  • Edie broke her arm the day before here 2nd birthday. Ouch!! It didn't slow her down one bit. My kids are the the greatest little people I know.
  • My wife took on some more Meredith work. So our house will be full of projects to do between now and July. She promises to want to do something as a family in August. An overnight to Omaha maybe?
  • Work is going really well. Kick'n ass and taken names.
  • Started Facebooking. I'll be honest it seems really lame. Who wants to have every facebook 'friend' you have knowing exactly what you are doing up the day, even hour. I just don't have time for all that crap. People that are really in to that in my opinion need to get a life. Its hard enough just getting in the mood to sit down write in my blog.
  • Purchased a Shopsmith Mark V from a gentleman in Minnapolis Minnisota. Nice guy. Found it on Craigslist. $900 was a steal considering all the others I found were going for 1200 to 1600. Great condition, lots of extras, jointer and bandsaw. I've already put it go good use.
  • Redid the third stall of my garage to accomidate the new purchase and cleaned up from the crap dropped in there during the winter.
Looking forward to summer!
